Books We Love Readers Scavenger Hunt
March 6, 2009 by Lillie
Note added 11/21/11: Books We Love is no longer a promotional group of authors.
Note added March 23, 2009: The scavenger hunt has been extended through the end of April. There will also be prizes for bringing new members to the yahoo group.
To celebrate the grand opening of the new Books We Love Reader’s Group, BWL_Readers@yahoogroups.com, participating authors invite you to get acquainted with us by joining in a fun scavenger hunt. Sign up for the group and join the fun Saturday, March 20th and Sunday, March 21st.
Whether you come to play or not, we hope you will celebrate with us the beginning of what we hope will be a stimulating and pleasant group experience.
Join us in welcoming Spring! Have some fun and maybe win an autographed copy of Dream or Destiny or another great book from a Books We Love author.
Thanx to share about this new book Love Reader’s Group.I will sure read it….
Hary,
The scavenger hunt should be fun, and the group is a good way to find out about books and authors.
I will have to check it out! How did I miss this group?
Bluestocking,
The yahoo group is new; the scavenger hunt is to get the word out to readers. However, Books We Love has been around for several years. It’s listed in my resources and I’ve posted about it a few times before, but it’s been awhile—maybe before you started reading my blog. There’s also a blog by BWL authors—it’s listed in my blogroll.
This seems like a nice thing for my mom to join. I’ll tell her about it. Her name is Angeli Perrow and she has 3 published children’s books with another one in the pipeline. Thanks for the information.
Gabriel,
Thanks for sharing this with your mom. I’m a great admirer of anyone who writes children’s books. That would be very difficult for me.
I know that she really enjoys it and it has become a big part of her identity. She also enjoys doing author visits to her local schools.
That’s great, Gabriel. It’s so important for kids to have positive role models, and I’m sure she’s that on her school visits.
I look forward to the scavenger hunt and participating on the new group. I’ve been a fan of the website for years.
PhyllisC,
Glad you’re a fan of BWL and hope you enjoy the scavenger hunt.
Sounds like a fun group, Lillie.

Helen,
It is a fun group,especially for readers who like to get to know authors.
Of course, it’s also great for authors who like to interact with readers. Not all members may be interested in my books, but all members are interested in books and some will be interested in mine.
Lillie, what a clever idea and another great way to unite those who share a love of books. Thanks for sharing this on the blog!

Karen,
I like to share information and opportunities for readers and for authors, and this is for both.
I would but I don’t really have time. Sounds fun though!
Great blog by the way.

The scavenger hunt will take time, but for many avid readers the time is well-spent if they’re learning about new books and authors and have a chance to win free books.
Thanks for that blog info. Joining the group is worth considering. regards
Adam,
If you’re a reader who enjoys meeting authors and finding new books, the BWL Readers group is a great one to join.
Thanks for the group, hope i win
Bjarke,
Good luck in the scavenger hunt!
I don’t normally read books nowadays because of the excessive use of internet. Any way I will check this one

Shanavas,
I’m on the Internet all the time, too, but I still love to read books. I always try to read a few pages or a chapter when I eat a meal alone; my husband usually isn’t around for at least one meal of the day so I get some reading in every day.
Thank you for recommending another book group. Reading books is my hobby

Sunil,
I think this will be fun, and it’s now been extended through the end of April.
This scavenger hunt will be fun! I can tell.
Johnathan,
I agree that the scavenger hunt will be fun. If you haven’t joined the group yet, sign up at the link above and start joining in the fun.
What a wonderful idea. I use to read a lot but sadly not so much anymore, kids. I do read to them, but only books with lots of pictures
(over and over again 
. I see posts are dated 2009 but I will check it out anyway. Lille, you have created a great blog in here:)
Kathy,
Books We Love is no longer a promotional group of authors. It is now a publisher, so the books and authors are different from the time of the scavenger hunt. My book, for example, is no longer there.
